Yao awoke in a dark room, He groaned sitting up. "Hm.. Where am I,aru?" he looked around only seeing a door like structure with a bulls eye on it. He stood, "Hello? Is anyone here aru?" he said loud hoping someone would answer, nothing at least nothing at first. He heard some sounds coming from room next to his, coming from behind the bulls eye. He cautiously made his way to the door looking back and forth to make sure nothing would shoot out or attack him. It was safe for now. "Hello?!" He yelled, and heard a few sounds from the other side of the door. "Is someone there!" The Chinese man yelled again. "Aniki!" Yong screamed sounding distressed. "Yong! Is that you?! Where are you!" He leaned up closer to the wall trying to hear better. "I-I don't know! On something! We are tied up! We can't move! Help us!" He yelled in a panic, slightly relieved his favorite brother was there to save them. Or At least that's what he thought. The other Asians talked to each other all Yao could hear was cluttered talking. That all soon changed to panicked scared voices. A ding was heard and the two doors began to slowly open. Yao stepped back and watched them open, and saw just what his brothers were in.
He ran into the room and up to the jail like bars surrounding his brothers. His brothers were being spun around a carousel looking device, as they saw their brother they called out to him to save them. Yao looked around the cage; he couldn't find a way in anywhere. "I will get you out, aru! I swear!" he said to them hoping to calm them down. For a moment it did then a shotgun slowly lowered from the ceiling. All the Asians looked at it in shock, especially Yao. The gun was aimed to hit the chest of whoever was in front of it. They all watched Yao as he ran back and forth trying his best to find a way in even though he knew there wasn't a way. He heard static sound through the room, turning around he saw a TV light the room a bit more. It showed a small puppet on the screen, "Hello Yao Wang.. I want to play a game." Yaos eye twitched as he got closer to the TV. "What do you want with me, aru?!" he yelled at it, though he knew the puppet probably couldn't hear him. "You are here for a reason Yao.. You were not able to fend for yourself. You always needed help from others. You couldn't fend off the enemies to save your brothers. You lost Kaoru, Same for Yong, and Mei, Mali too. They were taken and you couldn't do anything, your weak. And your dear brother Kiku, Abandoned you. You couldn't even defend yourself against your brother. Let's just see how strong you are here." The puppet paused. Yao glared at the screen remembering those times when they were taken from him. "Not True! I Am Strong, Aru!" he yelled. "Let's put that strength to the test. See that shotgun over there? It is set to shoot whoever is in front of it. The ride will stop every minute for 30 seconds. You have a choice shoot them or save them. The catch? Only two may get off the ride. You must press the button in the box before the gun shoots. Who will you save? Who to you cherish most? Your decisions symbolized by the blood on your hands." The screen went back to static and then black. Yao turned around to face his brother swallowing hard he stepped up to the bars.
Yao stared at his brothers that passed; to him it felt like everything was in slow motion. He saw his brothers sitting there tied to a ride that four will die on. How could I possibly choose.. I love them all so much.. He felt some tears run down his face, as he thought about who he would have to shoot. As the Asians spun the ride became slower as if it could be stopping at anytime. Yao stood there watching, not much more he could do. He saw a box raise up from the floor to his right and saw there was a small button on the inside of it. It looked suspicious like he shouldn't put his hand in. Your decisions symbolized by the blood on your hands. What did that mean? He was uncertain and didn't want to find out. But he knew he would have to eventually. A squeaking sound grew louder ad the ride started to stop in front of him. He looked at who stopped in front of him and saddened. It was Mei..
Mei stared at the gun frightfully trying to squirm her was out of the chains holding her in place. "Y-Yao!" he said softly, the timer across from her started ticking down from 30. "Mei! I.." he couldn't even speak right he didn't know what to do his heart was beating like crazy, he didn't want to lose a sister. She stared at him with a pleading look, "P-Please save me Brother.." she begged. Yao looked at the button; he could only save two which meant the button would only work two times… He looked back at Mei who was in tears begging under her breath for him to help her. The timer was at 10 seconds, these seconds seemed to going agonizingly slow for Yao. He chokes out a soft cry and turned his head he could bear to watch. "I..I'm sorry.." he muttered and Mei sat there staring at her brother. "Yao! No Yao!" she yelled crying. The timer stopped and they heard the click of the gun. BANG. There was silence. No one said a word they all just stared at their sister a gun wound right through her chest. Yao looked back up at her muttering that he is sorry over and over again. The ride began to spin again with Mei lifelessly swaying back and forth with the ride. Yao couldn't take this he doesn't know if he can take doing that again. The squeaking sound came again, and slowly stopped. Yao looked up eyes locked with Malis.
He looked at the Chinese man scared, especially after seeing what he did to Mei, he was scared the same fate would happen to him. The timer started just like before. Yao shook his head, "Yao! P-Please don't kill me! I-Ill do anything!" he screamed tears flowing down his cheeks. Yao couldn't even look he stared at the ground then at the box. He moved his hand over to the box but pulled it back as if he was thinking about it. "Yao Please! Please!" he kept yelling at the man getting more and more panicked io the timer was getting closer and closer to zero. Yao couldn't. He loved Mali very much as he did Mei but… He couldn't he needed another more than him, as selfish as that seems he didn't care as much for him as he did the others… Yao wiped his tears away from his face, and hear the click of the gun. BANG. He clenched his hands together, hearing some of the other Asians cry out to him. "S-Sorry I-I can't, aru…" he sobbed trying to get a hold of himself. He was having a break down, he couldn't do this. The ride started up for the third time. And not soon after the dreadful squeaking sound came again. Yao slowly raise his head and his heart skipped a beat when he saw who was sitting in front of him. Kiku.
"Y-Yao-san.." he muttered looking at his brother with fear in his eyes. "K-Kiku! N-No.." he couldn't let Kiku die, not him. He was with Yao from the very beginning, Yao raised him from a child how could he kill Kiku… "K-Kiku I-I.." Yao couldn't make a full sentence he was crying looking at his brother. The timer starts a little late, Yao reaches through the bars as if he could reach Kiku and pull him out. He already killed two siblings he couldn't let Kiku die with them. Yao looked at the box beside him, he slowly places his hand in the box but pulls it out quickly. "Yao please.. I-I am truly sorry for everything… I didn't mean to hurt you…" he said as calmly as he could. Yao felt more tears run down his face, his heart beat picking up speed as he put his hand back into the box and pushed on the button. The Timer made a ding sound and stopped, but before Yao could pull his hand out a sharp spike stabbed his hand. Yao screamed in pain ripping his hand back from the box. Kiku stared at him tearfully and thankful. "Y-Yao-san.. Are you ok.." Yao nodded, it hurt him but it was the price to pay to save his brother. The remaining Asians all looked at kiku the best they could. That was one safe. He could only save one more. The ride began spinning again, and a few seconds later was stopped. The one sitting in front of him now was his last sister. Lein.
She didn't look at her brother right away she only stared down at her blood stained clothes. The timer starts. Yao looked at her, his last sister. He couldn't let her die but… He looked at the remaining Asians, Yong and Kaoru. If he saves her his two brothers will be killed, and they would know it. He teared up again unsure of what to do; he noticed another box rising from the floor on the opposite side as the other. Yao glances back at Lein and stared her. "L-Lein.." She looked up at him her eyes full of tears. "…P-Please.. I don't want to die.. Im scared Yao…" she said her voice jumping. Yao covered his ears, he couldn't stand this anymore he was at his breaking point. He wanted to take her place he wanted to be the one getting shot not them. Yao looked at the timer it was at 5 seconds. Yao couldn't even; he closed his eyes tight lowering his head. Yao! No! Please! That was the last thing he heard before that gun shot. BANG. He could no lover control the tears flowing down his face, he was trembling uncontrollably. The ride started again, he lowered his hands and kept his head down he couldn't. The ride came to a stop, Yao looked up. Yong.
Yong sat there, a usually happy-go-lucky person, now a trembling mess. "Aniki! Aniki!" he whimpered staring at his brother, he looked down crying. Yao stared at him "Y-Yong… I…" He started but was cut off. "I know you hate me… Just let it shoot me…" The timer starts. Yao couldn't believe what he just heard. Does Yong really think I hate him?! No! Yao sniffed falling to his knees. Yong looked up at him slightly. "Y-Yong.. I Don't.. I-I love you. Very much, aru.." he sobbed choking out the words. Yong looked at him in shock tears running down his face quickly. "W-What…" he looked at Kaoru then back to Yao. "I Don't Hate You! Why Would You Think That?! I Could Never!" He yelled covering his face with his hands. Yong took a deep breath. "Aniki.." He said hoping the other would look up at him. The timer was getting closer to zero only having 10 seconds left. Yao stood up about to press the button. "No! Don't!" Yong yelled making Yao freeze, he looked over at Yong. Yong sat there with a small smile, tears still running down his face. "I-I love you too… I always will… I'll be waiting for you…" Yao couldn't he fell to his knees again reaching his hand out to his youngest brother. BANG. Yao closed his eyes feeling his heart drop. "Y-Yong…" he mumbled. The ride began again and stopped shortly after with the last asian sitting there Kaoru.
His normal emotionless face was replaced with one of shock but yet relief he knew he would be saved but felt sorrowful for his dear brothers and sisters that died. Yao trembled frozen in his spot. "Teacher! Come on! T-The timer!" Yao snapped out of it upon hearing his voice, he stumbled a bit getting up grabbing onto the side of the box with his good hand. He knew what would happen when he pressed the button, he took a deep breath trying to prepare himself for it. He reached his hand in and pushed the button, waiting for the ding from the timer. The spike fell quickly and stabbed through his other hand, He hissed in pain ripping it away as well. "Thank you teacher.." Kaoru mumbled. The remaining two Asians were released of their binds and they stood up. Kiku and Kaoru looked at their dead sibilings and quickly looked away they couldn't bear to look any longer. Yao saw the door on the left open and quickly ran in to them, giving them both tight hugs crying onto their shoulders. "I-Im so sorry! Im so sorry!" he repeated over and over again. Kiku and kaoru nodded leading them out of the room. Yao refused to leave trying to break free and run back to his other sibilings, but Kiku and Kaoru kept a tight hold of him, Yao had completely broken down he just wanted his brothers back, but.. They would not be returning.
